It's Blogtober!

I am going to attempt to post something everyday this month. I have a lot of things in my Google Reader that I can draw upon and I have a fairly full schedule of things that I will be doing this month that will eat up a few more posts. And there's always Recipe Mondays and State of the Union Thursdays to fill in the rest.

October is named after the Latin, "octo" for eight, but retained its name after January and February were added to the Roman calendar. If you are looking for something else to celebrate in the month of October (other than October / Playoff baseball), the month is also known as:

National Pizza Month

National Popcorn Poppin’ Month

National Pork Month (United States)

National Sausage Month

National Squirrel Awareness Month

I'm looking forward to the challenge and hope that you will all hang with me for the month of Blogtober!

Let me tell you we are plenty aware of squirrels around here. Since Fall fell, Stella has lept from the car to chase squirrels and one day, at the dog park, a crow. Please let everyone hibernate early this year. This is way too much excitement for me.
